Re: VOW Flagship: Kobe World 2019, WWE vs. AEW & more!
All this Dragon Gate talk... *chefs kiss* At some point Joe said there was no way that Keisuke Okuda would ever move up the card. I don't know if that's true. He's shoot best friends with Ben-K and is the nephew of Ultimo Dragon, so if any faux-MMA guy is going to get pushed in Dragon Gate, it's goi...

Re: Dragon Gate
I've been doing some thinking about where Kobe World 2019 stacks up as an all-time Dragon Gate show (if you haven't read my review, it's on the site by the time you're reading this). Compiled a quick list of my Top 10 DG shows (rated more so on quality than personal enjoyment): 1) Kobe World 2011 At...

Re: Dragon Gate
I'm trying to get into Dragon Gate more, but find the streaming swrgice very confusing. Why are the shows called Infinity on there? Some clarification on gow to navigate and search for stuff would be greatly appreciated if any one could help? I will echo what Case said. Infinity is must watch. It's...

And then the powers that be won't know who to book them against. Oh well.Rich Kraetsch wrote: ↑Wed Jul 10, 2019 4:44 pmSaw via twitter that they were scouting CAMBODIA the other day. Knowing them they are going to find some insane talent from there and they'll be booked on every WM weekend show in 2025.

Re: AAW Thread
https://twitter.com/AAWPro/status/1148983366345252865 AAW debuts in Milwaukee this weekend. Hope it's a success for them as they're running ROH's old building and ROH is no longer hot in that market (2013-2014, Milwaukee was one of their best towns). Juvy vs. Johnny Nitro could be a real disaster if...

Re: Strong Style Spirit - New Japan catch all thread
Have spent the past few weeks watching KENTA matches during lunch so I can try to get a sense of what kind of KENTA we're going to get. A lot of his 2013-2014 NOAH stuff holds up well and as someone that was a fan of the Ibushi match, I'm very excited at the possibility of what's left to come in thi...

Re: OWE - Oriental Wrestling Entertainment
Sunny Zhai vs. Buck Gunderson is the first match announced for the SMASH x OWE shows.
Just from what I've heard, I would expect these shows to be loaded. Would recommended finding a way to get there if you're near the area

Re: Yuji Nagata
I've watched a lot of Nagata in NOAH lately. He's someone that I think everyone should have on their list. His early work is insanely strong. The tag with Akiyama vs. Misawa/Kobashi, the singles matches vs. Taue, Akiyama, and the awesome GHC title match with Kobashi, and then the tag match with Tana...

Re: Chad's Emerald Rewatch
Chad, I watched that Akiyama vs Nakajima match myself the other day and I was a big fan too. Jun was fantastic in it. If I can make a recommendation, I think you'll really enjoy this. Maybe the most un-NOAH match that's a really great match (ok aside from KENTA vs SUWA which I forgot about as I typ...

Re: Daisuke Sekimoto
Does anyone have a link to Sekimoto vs. Sugiura from the 2014 Global League Finals? That match almost made my Top 10 that year, but I think it's vanished. I hadn't thought of Sekimoto at all until I saw this thread, but he's someone I could very easily see sneaking on the back end of my ballot. I re...

Re: Kenta Kobashi
It's going to be hard for me not to rank Kobashi at #1. He doesn't have the longevity as someone like KENTA or Sugiura, but Kobashi's 2003-2005, to me, is the greatest run in wrestling history. Throw in some great matches in 2000 and 2006-2007, I just don't think I'm going to be able to put anyone h...

Re: Next wave indie stars
My girlfriend recently said the same thing. Other than the Io/Mayu draw from Stardom 12/2015, she's never seen anything she didn't think was subpar. "It's just not as good." She's not a wrestling fan at all outside of live indie shows though. Ah your gf is like Sean Sloan. Live indie wrestling only...
